Hey All,
2000 3500 Open. Going to pull the trigger on the Hurley H2O 36" extended roll on davit system.
I've contacted the folks at Tiara but can't get a straight answer as to the make up of the swim platform. Seems the CAD drawing they have is corrupted. I'd like to now what I'm drilling into before drilling.
Anyone out there actually drilled into this year/model or at least model?
The swim platform is the integrated type that's about 29" deep. My expectation is that it's hollow balsa cored. Just not sure if there's any plywood in that mix or not. I'm planning on over drilling the holes, fill with epoxy, redrill and use toggles. Hoping that if it is just gelcoat/glass/balsa that that will be sufficient. The 36" extensions mount for and aft which seems better than just a single mount point from a torsion perspective.
